Abstract
Today, people increasingly embrace the natural process of aging while seeking to age gracefully and elegantly. As a result, there has been growing interest in facelift and facial rejuvenation techniques. Patients tend to prefer methods that refresh the facial expression, offer natural-looking results, and leave minimal scarring.
The authors describe a new technique and its tips that include short-scar facelift in addition to forehead and midface lift, especially for patients between the ages 35 and 50 with moderate skin sagging and excess. This procedure also includes intervention on the platysma muscle and all major retaining ligaments.
Seventy-four patients, all female, who were operated on with the TemFa lift technique described by the author, were evaluated with midface area measurements and Brow Positioning Grading Scale (BPGS), and the preoperative and postoperative results are presented.
Compared with the preoperative results, the ratio of the upper midface area (P1) to the lower midface area (P2) increased significantly in the postoperative period (p < 0.05), while the BPGS results decreased significantly (p < 0.05), resulting in a younger eyebrow height and position. After the operation, the square face appearance is replaced by a more youthful V-shaped face.
TemFa lift technique can be considered as a suitable surgical technique for patients between the ages 35 and 50 who have moderate excess skin and sagging but also want some improvement in the neck and jawline area.
